The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Connor Braddock finished 237th of 365 men in the Open division at Cardiff 2026, in 1:29:32.
A station race more than a running one: 67% of the field beaten on the stations, against 15% on the runs. Nowhere gained more than the burpee broad jumps: 1:34 on the median. The race faded late: the second half went 1:15 worse against the middle of the field than the first.
Cardiff ran fast: the 1,764 athletes who also raced elsewhere this season were about 0:39 quicker here than at their other races.
